A 22-year-old Baker man pled guilty Monday to publicly making threats against East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney Hillar Moore III during Torence “Lil Booise” Hatch murder trial last year, an assistant for State District Judge Richard Anderson said Monday afternoon.

Dedrick Deandre Green, who pleaded guilty to a public intimidation charge, will be sentenced on June 21 and could face up to five years in prison.

An affidavit of probable cause says Green posted the following message on the social network site Twitter.com on May 5, 2012: I got a sniper rifle for Hillar Moore when he walk out the court house. Green also wrote on May 5 that Hatch should be released before he shoots the courthouse up.

The affidavit says both messages were posted from a Twitter account associated with the Dixie_Goon225 Twitter handle, which investigators revealed belonged to Green.
